My office manager's brother was involved in a freak accident during the storms a couple of weeks ago. Lighting hit a large tree and it fell on him. After two surgeries, he still hadn't regained any feeling below the neck. This week he asked to be taken off the ventilator, and the funeral is tonight. He was my age.

I've been here since 1999. I remember going from my last job to thyroid surgery to this job three days later. I've been here ever since. It's a small office, and I'm the last employee hired. We're at half-staff now, compared to back then. We've seen too many family members pass away over those years.
